This would be a day where we who are privileged reflect on how we abuse our power and benefit from an abusive system. How our wealth comes largely from colonialism, where a handful of countries enslaved the world and took all their shit. To reflect that, as individuals, we could not possibly repay the world in our lifetimes for hundreds of years of injustice.

Corporate denials lack meaningful signal but "we thought a strong and specific denial would be better than not denying it." I'm not convinced either way, but.... it sure would be weird if China didn't try something like this. They have the opportunity, the means, and the motive.

Okami is easily one of my favorites, but you would think some of these remakes would:a) make the 15 minute intro cutscene skippable. I mean seriously, wtf.b) add a hard mode for players that want a tiny bit of challenge. The upgrades are almost worthless because the base level is just so easy. My seven year old just beat it without dying and skipping almost all the side stories.

There should be a word for the strangers you see repeatedly, year after year, as on a common commute. You watch them grow older, their children growing up. You see them happy, sad, yelling on their phone. You see the clothes they pick for each season. Their struggles and joys are reflected and known in the tiny daily slices we witness. How could we not feel connected, even distant and nameless?

This only happens in the city. You see a lot of strangers in the city.
